Short summary
We evaluated how well a widely used air quality model simulates key properties of organic particles in the atmosphere, such as volatility and oxygen content, which influence how particles age, spread, and affect both air quality and climate. Using observations in eastern China, we found the model underestimated particle mass and misrepresented their properties. Our results highlight the need for improved emissions and chemical treatments to better predict air quality and climate impacts.
